Great looking coin. Maybe it would be better in another thread, but I am always interested in hearing the stories behind how other collectors are acquiring their coins. My LCS will have world coins at melt sometimes. I think I should make an effort to start looking for more, because there are so many nice coins that can be acquired for a good price to build a collection or to flip for good profit.

It's interesting when a coin has a picture of a child monarch. I just checked the history, and King Alfonso was only 10 years old when this coin was struck.

Here is one of mine, slightly different, 1900 Spain
